A friend of mine was talking about her childhood in the province. It’s rainy season now in the Philippines and it reminds her of her childhood. She said they used to bath in the rain and shower for the water coming out of the gutter. I thought it was really gross since the water form the gutters are dirty. She answered that their roof gutters have gutter roof. They are assured that the water coming from the gutter is as fresh as the rain.

I thought about it for a while and I think it can be fun. If you have been a reader here for awhile you might remember I mentioned our house that we will be building in Palawan. I am thinking of putting a gutter protection for my roof gutters. I can just imagine how fun it would be for my kids. They would shower from the gutter and I would not worry about dirt. Gutter cap will protect my gutter from accumulating dirt and twigs and leaves. I can also ask my caretakers to put some gutter protection on the roof gutter. Aside for the fun in can bring to the kids, we can also use recycle the water coming from it. We can use it to water the plants.

I also heard that there are technologies that can make rain water safe for drinking. I heard they need to install some filters in the gutters. A gutter with a gutter guard is well protected and it won’t be that much of a hassle when we employ this technology in our farm.

I can’t wait to live in our plantation!

  1. this reminds me of my childhood too. When the rain starting we used to rush out. we were very happy running around the flooded street.Those years you can taste the freshness of the rain water. Unlike today!
